Every year I am so excited for our 5th grade author visit. For more than a handful of years now, we have been so lucky have Kate Klise visit. She always provides our students with an amazing and interactive experience where she conducts a writer's workshop. Through this lesson, Kate provides students with a strategy to help them create their own successful stories. Our 5th grade Bobcats spend a great dealing time preparing for Kate Klise's visit by learning about her and exploring both her picture books and a couple of her chapter book series. Her style of writing is truly unique and our 5th graders love her creativity! |

Last week our kinder stars began letter stations in the learning commons focusing on A, B, C, and D. Today, our youngest Bobcats completed letter stations for E. F. G. and H. At each of our four rotations, kinders begin by watching a short letter/sound song to see and hear different items that start with that letter/sound. After watching their video, students have the option to read, write, or draw. Each letter station has an assortment of books with titles and pictures to highlight a particular letter/sound for students to read or look through. Students also have the option, however, of writing or drawing their own words and/or pictures to match the letter/sound. Eight down, eighteen to go! Some student creations for write and draw.
